Chapter 141 The Bizarre Overlap Between Reality and the World in the Book
Jiang Zhicheng was startled by the chilling killing intent emanating from Xia Yuhuan.
He never imagined that one day he would be able to sense such a terrifying and horrifying aura emanating from Xia Yuhuan.
"Xiao...Xiao Huan..." Jiang Zhicheng couldn't help but call out to her.
Xia Yuhuan, lost in her emotions, snapped out of her reverie.
She looked at Jiang Zhicheng, smiled with her eyebrows curving, and asked, "Teacher, what's wrong?"
Looking at the smiling girl in front of him, Jiang Zhicheng almost doubted that he had misjudged her.
Where is the slightest hint of fierceness in Xia Yuhuan right now?
She looks like a charming and adorable young girl!
"N-nothing... I just wanted to ask, has Yan Zhou been cured of the poison? Is there anything else I can do to help?" Jiang Zhicheng stammered for a moment, finally regaining his normal speaking ability, and asked.
"Yes, the most important step is done. All that's left is some finishing touches, which I can handle myself," Xia Yuhuan replied with a smile.
Jiang Zhicheng said "Oh," and then asked her, "Why did a black worm crawl out of Yanzhou's body?"
God knows how shocked and surprised he was when he first saw that worm.
That black worm was different from ordinary worms; it was very thin, like a wire, and at first glance, it looked a bit like a miniature snake.
Xia Yuhuan whispered, "It is the source of the poison."
"Chi Yanzhou's coma is largely related to it."
As Xia Yuhuan spoke, she felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, this is a book, and it should have no connection with her real world.
But ironically, the world in this book features a poison similar to the one in her real world.
Even if these poisons are not the same type, they are of the same kind, a lineage of poisons.
So it was really that person's arrival that caused Chi Yanzhou to be poisoned?
However, in the original text, Chi Yanzhou also died of organ failure more than two years after being poisoned and falling into a coma.
While she was reading this novel, her old rival was still in reality, poisoning her, and she was fighting back and forth.
So what exactly happened? What went wrong?
Or perhaps the poison Chi Yanzhou was given by her old rival's ancestor? And her old rival researched and improved upon this poison?
But one is the world in the book, and the other is the real world. The two worlds are not connected, so how could the same poison appear?
For a moment, Xia Yuhuan's mind was completely bewildered by this suddenly appearing old rival.
She raised her hand and tapped her head, forcing herself not to overthink.
The most important thing right now is to finish the task of detoxifying Chi Yanzhou.
Afterwards, Xia Yuhuan gathered her thoughts and observed Chi Yanzhou's condition.
When the time was up, Xia Yuhuan removed the needles from him and then took his pulse.
She was very satisfied with the physical condition indicated by her pulse.
Xia Yuhuan nodded in satisfaction, and then fed Chi Yanzhou another pill.
Jiang Zhicheng asked her, "Has the poison been neutralized?"
He didn't know what Xia Yuhuan was feeding Chi Yanzhou, but he was certain that Xia Yuhuan wouldn't harm him, and that was enough.
"Yes, it's been resolved." Xia Yuhuan nodded.
Jiang Zhicheng was immediately excited: "That's great, I'll go tell them and put their minds at ease."
Xia Yuhuan didn't stop him when she saw this.
After all, this is indeed something to be happy about.
Jiang Zhicheng ran to the door and opened it.
Chi Shaokang, Zhang Xianya, and Yan Hu each carried a stool and sat outside the door. When the door opened, they all stood up excitedly.
Upon seeing Jiang Zhicheng, they were about to ask about the situation when Jiang Zhicheng took the initiative to say, "It's done! Yan Zhou's poison has finally been cured!"
Upon hearing this, the three were overjoyed and immediately swarmed inside.
Jiang Zhicheng, on the other hand, was forced out of the door.
Jiang Zhicheng: "..."
The three rushed into the room and saw Xia Yuhuan covering Chi Yanzhou with a blanket.
"Xiao Huan, Yan Zhou's poison has been neutralized, when will he wake up?" Zhang Xianya asked anxiously.
She had originally planned that Chi Yanzhou would lie in bed for the rest of his life, and she would take care of him for the rest of her life. Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better, and Chi Yanzhou was getting better again. How could she not be excited?
"His body still needs time to recover and react after the detoxification, but this time will not be too long, at most two or three days."
"If it's a little earlier, he should wake up tomorrow; if it's a little later, he'll probably have to wait until the day after tomorrow or the day after that," Xia Yuhuan said.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianya covered her mouth and burst into tears of joy.
She hugged Xia Yuhuan tightly, thanking her with choked sobs.
"Thank you, Xiao Huan. If it weren't for you, Yan Zhou probably would never have woken up. Xiao Huan, how can we ever repay your immense kindness? Waaah..."
When Chi Yanzhou was lying unconscious in bed, she didn't say anything on the surface. She went to and from get off work as usual, acting as if she was unaffected. But only she knew the bitterness in her heart.
Now that the hardships have finally come to an end, one can imagine the complex emotions swirling within.
Xia Yuhuan gently patted her back and said softly, "Mom, have you forgotten? We're family. Why are we talking about gratitude and repayment? That would make us feel distant."
Zhang Xianya responded with a choked voice, still unable to control her emotions.
After his initial excitement subsided, Chi Shaokang said, "Old Yan, let's go to the market and buy some meat and vegetables. We'll have a big lunch to celebrate."
Yan Hu immediately smiled and agreed.
The whole house was filled with joy.
Xia Yuhuan chuckled upon hearing this: "Dad, you trust me that much? Aren't you going to wait until Chi Yanzhou truly wakes up before we celebrate?"
Chi Shaokang said with a smile, "No need, daughter. Since you said he can wake up, then he definitely can."
"He's been lying down for so long, even if he wakes up, he probably won't be able to eat meat or anything greasy or fishy. We don't need to wait for him to wake up, we can just celebrate by ourselves."
Xia Yuhuan was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this.
Chi Shaokang was absolutely right about that.
Even if Chi Yanzhou wakes up, he should eat a light diet for a short period of time and not eat too much oily or meaty food.
However, eating meat in front of someone who cannot eat meat is indeed a cruel thing.
If she can only look but not eat, she will definitely explode.
Thinking about it this way, it seems like celebrating early today isn't such a bad thing after all.
"Then I'll go grocery shopping with them. Xiao Huan, you wait at home. Mom will cook you something delicious for lunch."
"Okay, Mom, then thank you for your hard work, Mom and Dad and Uncle Yan," Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.
Jiang Zhicheng quietly chimed in, "Remember to bring mine; I'm going to freeload lunch!"
Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Chi Shaokang said, "Okay, don't worry, you'll get your share!"
“But if you want to eat something good, you have to put in the effort. Come on, let’s go see what groceries to buy.” He said, hooking his arm around Jiang Zhicheng’s neck and walking away.
Jiang Zhicheng said irritably, "Let go of me, I can walk by myself. I won't feel uncomfortable if you hold me."
Xia Yuhuan watched the group leave hand in hand, laughing, and couldn't help but smile too.
She came to the bedside, covered Chi Yanzhou with the blanket, and said softly, "You have to be strong and wake up soon, so that your parents won't worry and feel bad."
"Chi Yanzhou, I... am really looking forward to meeting you. What about you? Do you feel the same way?" Xia Yuhuan murmured softly.
